Members ranger1rg Posted April 6, 2022 Members Share Posted April 6, 2022 Why doesn’t anyone admit that Victor could have prevented ALL of this mess? Why wouldn’t he have language included in Victoria’s contract to prevent her making Ashland co-owner? It makes no sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted April 6, 2022 Members Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) It’s weird that Ashley, Traci, and Billy didn’t bring up Theo when discussing potential agenda-driven interlopers in their family. That story literally just happened. Did I miss a step with Allie and Diane? This light, cordial interaction feels odd after the strained conversation they had when Jack revealed who “Taylor” really was. Also this LOL Edited April 6, 2022 by Faulkner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted April 6, 2022 Members Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) Diane said the one thing that nobody else would to Jack about his relationship with Keemo. Keemo turned his back on Jack and he just let him. I also don't understand the comparisons of Diane Jenkins with Sheila Carter on social media and other boards. Diane, like Phyllis, was of the scheming vixen type. Sheila on the other hand more or less fills the mold of what a soap villain is.

Members FrenchBug82 Posted April 6, 2022 Members Share Posted April 6, 2022 I will say it even though it makes sound nuts: I think the show PR has to do with the way Diane is talked about in comments and social med ia. As I said, I spotted immediately from the interviews and the teaser that the show was portraying her as a big bad villain which she wasn't (to repeat myself, an antagonist, not a villain). But then YouTube comments were full of fans talking about her as if she was scary and like Sheila and all that and sorry but it doesn't pass the sniff test. It may make me sound conspiracionist but I think the comm team has sock puppets that are leading the conversation that way. I remember suspecting the same thing when the YouTube comments for B&B re" Taylor/Ridge were soooo skewed towards cheering Steffy and talking about Taylor like a saint - which they were doing on a show but that any viewed would know better about. NO ONE who watched when Diane was on would ever think of her that way - particularly not since the most "violent" things Diane did like the fire were not in her most recent MW appearance where she was semi-scheming semi-pathetic. And young viewers would not get excited over a character they know so little as to be skewed by the misleading way the show is presenting her. So I don't believe it to be organic. There, I said it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted April 6, 2022 Members Share Posted April 6, 2022 I can't fault them for hyping up a return the fans would actually like. It's not like anything else on this show is worth watching. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted April 6, 2022 Members Share Posted April 6, 2022 It is refreshing to see some actual Abbott family drama again on the show, even if it supported largely by ED, BM, and again more 20 year old flashbacks. The lack of Theo mention and also Billy’s words about Phyllis considering his own history with her were indeed strange. And yeah it’s strange that people are comparing Diane to Sheila when Diane came no where close, and even what’s being played out on screen doesn’t even suggest in the slightest that Diane is unhinged, but rather she is simply haunted and full of regrets and actually being realistic. Of course we still have the mystery of Allie’s mother, maybe that’s what is next Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted April 7, 2022 Members Share Posted April 7, 2022 Theo was just a shiny new toy that Jack got bored of really quickly. I'm still bitter about the way he was treated and how Jack practically set him up for failure against Saint Kyle and Princess Summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted April 7, 2022 Members Share Posted April 7, 2022 What baffles me the most is that the comments on their latest Instagram post would have you think otherwise. I guess all the pearl-clutchers would rather see 80-year-old Victor going around and punching out guys a third his age again.

Members Taoboi Posted April 7, 2022 Author Members Share Posted April 7, 2022 4-1 Those flashbacks were GOLD. Not only did anybody who did not know the history...got to see the history...but long timers got to see some great scenes. I for one never saw the scene when Diane found out it was Jack's sperm, not Victor's sperm that produced Kyle so I loved finally seeing that. Speaking of scenes, I loved the first scenes between Jack and Diane. Those were actually done well and PB and SW sold it for me. And some decent music, too. As for the 'how...' it makes me almost (note I said almost hehe) go back and watch the story because I barely remember the aftermath. And just mentioning Deacon Sharpe...mmmmm...lol. As far as the rest of the show....uh...what show? lol. I did like the coverover that Lauren was wearing. That's all I got. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
